    Affinity Field question

    Hi, Affinity Field states that all creatures that are within range when a "psionic effect" (of low-enough level) affects "you", are also subject to the "psionic effect", and that "psionic effect"s shared in such a way end when Affinity Field ends. What happens when a creature within range when...

    Multiclassing and Epic Progression

    Thanks for the replies folks. I realise this the more I look at them I would never make such a build either. But, given that spells become gradually less useful as monsters get gradually higher SR and saves, self-buffing and meleeing becomes an increasingly better way to go. In such a game...

    Multiclassing and Epic Progression

    Hi, Consider for the sake of example a character who has 20 Fighter levels, and 20 Wizard levels. 1) Can the character cast spells as a level 20 Wizard, regardless of the order in which the character leveled these 40 levels? 2) Will the character only have two attacks per round (main hand) if...

    Drow

    Make sure he/she knows Drow society well enough before he/she chooses to play a Drow. One way to do this is to read The Dark Elf Trilogy by R.A.Salvatore.

    Whirlwind Attack and movement

    Finally, a fighter class that is fun to play :) Rapid attack is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks. You get it kind of late, though; I was hoping to make a Monk who can Spring Attack vast distances and Whirlwind Attack. This would only start working when the character nears level 20, and...

    Whirlwind Attack and movement

    Hi, I am trying to maximize the usefulness of the Whirlwind Attack feat. The idea is to leap into a pile of enemies and whirlwind-attack, before being overwhelmed and beaten to pulp, possibly even leaping out again before my action ends (a la Spring Attack). Do you guys know of any way to move...

    Improved Unarmed Strike and Reach

    Hi, Say you have a reach weapon, like a Guisarme. You then threaten not the squares adjacent to you, but the squares immediately beyond those (that is, the 10ft radius area around you, minus the 5ft radius area around you). But what if you are equipping a non-reach weapon at the same time...

    How to punish a metagamer?

    Two things here: Does a level 2 Fighter know about charm spells, and Can a charmed individual feel that he was charmed, after the charm wears off? For the first part, it depends on the fighter's background, and the level of magic in your campaign setting. If wizards and magic is/are rare, and...

    Monks and sleep/meditation

    The 1 hour meditation is something you see with casters only, as for them, picking spells is separate from resting. I parsed the Monk Ki regain description as 8 hours of rest, or 8 hours of meditation, which is what got me wondering.

    Spring Attack, Reach, and Attack of Opportunity

    Hi, There are several questions here. I will first explain a scenario, and then extract questions from it. Here, "I" am "my character". Scenario: I tried attacking a monster using Spring Attack the other day in a campaign run by a friend of mine. The monster had a reach of 10 feet. I had...

    Monks and sleep/meditation

    Hi, In the Monk class description, it says, under "Ki Pool", Can the Monk rest through meditation? If so, how perceptive is the Monk in a meditative state? If not, do you know of any (non-item) way (feats, prestige classes, etc.) to let a Monk rest through meditation? (I like the flavor of...
